There’s aliens trying to attack Earth and there’s only one person who can stop them…. you! \u00a0Use your appBlaster gun and your iPhone to fend off\u00a0the\u00a0aliens, by stopping them in their tracks.<\/p>\n

Combining augmented reality and a fun game from the appstore, the appBlaster lets you track down and shoot aliens who appear to be invading your home and the entire planet \u00a0– don’t let us down!<\/p>\n

The appBlaster gun<\/a>\u00a0is lightweight and comes with a shoulder stock, meaning you can comfortably play for hours and make sure every one of those aliens is sent back to there home planet. \u00a0There’s two triggers on the gun too, a rear trigger which fires lasers and a front trigger which fires missiles, so there’s no excuses for missing the aliens.<\/p>\n

Here’s the clever augmented reality bit: the appBlaster app uses the rear facing camera of your iPhone to overlay the game against your environment – transforming your iPhone into a\u00a0high-tech sight complete with cross hairs and game data. \u00a0This makes the game completely feel\u00a0like\u00a0it’s happening all around you, bringing the invasion closer to home. \u00a0This is definitely one of the best iPhone accessories <\/a>for gaming fans.<\/p>\n

The augmentation is teamed with your iPhone’s accelerometer, making the game play at the same speed as you – if you turn fast, so will the aliens, but if you move slower, the game will slow down too. \u00a0Even re-loading your gun is\u00a0incorporated\u00a0into the game, as you have to point your gun to the sky then bring it back down to re-load; all before those pesky aliens attack even more.<\/p>\n

Playing with\u00a0the\u00a0appBlaster can lead to hours of fun and you can even play to the Mission Impossible theme like in this video<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n
